Ex-Sulu board member faces graft for unaccounted cash advances

MANILA, Philippines - The Office of the Ombudsman has indicted a former Sulu provincial board member for failing to account on time the cash advances he made in 2007, amounting to P100,000.
 
The Office filed a case against Musimar Alih, former provincial board member of Sulu, due to failure to render accounts under Article 217 of the Revised Penal Code.
 
The resolution said that Alih received a cash advance amounting to P100,000 representing his share in the Development Fund for projects of the local government for the period July 2007 to March 2008.  
 
Despite the lapse of the two-month reglementary period within which to liquidate, Alih submitted the liquidation documents only a year after or on March 10, 2009.  
 
However, the Office dismissed the malversation charge against Alih for lack of evidence.
